After the release of Baron 5G01 chip, Huawei became the first company in the world with 5G chip-terminal-network capability to provide end-to-end 5G solutions for customers. Baron 5G01 came out and broke through the key technologies for global 5G terminals Chip development, for the global promotion of 5G commercial, for the development of China's integrated circuit What breakthrough significance?
According to reports, the Balong 5G01 is the world's first commercially available, 3GPP-based 5G chip that supports the world's leading 5G band, including Sub6GHz and high frequency (mmWave millimeter waves), theoretically up to 2.3Gbps Data download speed, and support for NSA (non-independent networking) and SA (independent networking) two networking with the 501 release of the Barron also Huawei 5G router - Huawei 5G CPE, divided into low-frequency (Sub6GHz) CPE and high frequency (mmWave) CPE two.
Yu Chengdong disclosed that Huawei has invested 5G in research and development since 2009 and has invested over 600 million U.S. dollars in total. At present, Huawei has cooperated with more than 30 top operators in the world such as T-Mobile, BT, Telefonica and etc. In 2017, Huawei Cooperating with partners to launch 5G pre-commercial network, 2018 will promote the perfect industrial chain and complete interoperability testing and support the first round of 5G commercial.
At present, Qualcomm and other international giants are also accelerating the development of 5G chip, Qualcomm announced that its Snapdragon X50 chip is in full swing research and development, hoping to support 5G mobile phone market as soon as possible.Com said that the global 18 operators and 20 leading terminal manufacturers Business has chosen to use Qualcomm Snapdragon X50 5G modem for the first batch of 5G network test and consumer terminals in the first half of 2019 to provide users with 5G user experience.
Lin Yu, vice president of CCIDI Institute of Integrated Circuits Institute said that compared with other chip companies, Huawei chips in the introduction of the point in time and control over the supply chain has a better advantage, 5G chip to market, you must With the cooperation of downstream vendors, Huawei, as a chip manufacturer, terminal manufacturer and network equipment manufacturer, possesses the advantages of integrated trinity and can better seize the opportunities of 5G.
Lin Yu believes that the breakthrough Balong 5G01 for the development of China's integrated circuits have a very different meaning.SG chip and 4G chips have many different places, for the transmission rate, high delay requirements, determines its antenna, Material technology must change, ultimately affecting the overall system architecture design ideas, its breakthrough not only means that China's IC design capabilities in the system changes, but also means that China's IC companies in radio frequency materials, antenna technology, etc. Ability to break through.
The development of 5G will drive China's development in the network-terminal-chip industry and bring about breakthrough opportunities for the development of various industries in China. According to Dr. Zhu Shaoxin, IC Design Institute at CCID Research Institute, in terms of semiconductor materials, the current compound semiconductor materials Of the voice in the hands of European and American enterprises, and has established the market and technical barriers, the formation of the inertia of the industrial chain cooperation, the Chinese enterprises to enter the market late, it is difficult to have enough voice. 4G smartphones GaAs RF amplifier market, The market share of Skyworks, Qorvo and Broadcom in the United States is nearly 90%. The GaN base station market is concentrated in Japan's Sumitomo Electric, Gree and Qorvo businesses in the United States. The international blockade of core technologies is imposed on China and the industrial chain is facing a sanction of embargo risks. Semiconductor material products are not yet mature, making the machine a large number of imported foreign devices, supply chain security there is a big hidden danger.
5G smart phones, 5G base stations will be extensive use of compound semiconductor RF devices, including Huawei, including Chinese companies have the voice of 5G communications, China's compound semiconductor will provide a vast market.Currently Huawei, OPPO, vivo is the world's top five , Huawei and ZTE are the world's second and fourth base stations of communication base stations, with 500 million self-owned smartphones shipped annually, and the sales of semiconductor materials suppliers such as Skyworks and Qorvo in China account for the entire The company more than 60% .In addition to the vast market, China's compound semiconductor manufacturing technology reserves and industries have a certain foundation.First, universities and research institutions are accelerating the industrialization of technology, through the transformation and cooperation of technology established by the Crystal Electricity, Haiweisuanxin and other companies began to accelerate the pace of development.Second, LED chips and compound semiconductor manufacturing process is similar to provide the industrial basis.LED is based on compound semiconductor optoelectronic devices, in the substrate, epitaxial and device technology exchange China LED chip industry supporting mature, can support the compound semiconductor industry.
The development of 5G will not only bring tremendous boost to the development of China's digital economy not only for the world but also for China's overtaking in the corners and corners of the upstream and downstream industries from the network to the terminals and chips. A door, all kinds of industry opportunities are gushing out.
